Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
93 words
An electronic thermometer, comprising a temperature sensor (1,141 b, 147a) producing an electrical signal which varies in magnitude and whose final constant magnitude is an indication of the temperature of an object, temperature predicting computing means (3-5) monitoring the variation of said electrical signal in order to predict said temperature and display means (6, 7; 81, 82; 121; 142a, 142b; 148) for displaying said predicted temperature, characterized by means (3-5) for providing a range of error associated with the predicted temperature, said display means being arranged also to display the range of error.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
93 words
An electronic thermometer, comprising a temperature sensor (1,141 b, 147a) producing an electrical signal which varies in magnitude and whose final constant magnitude is an indication of the temperature of an object, temperature predicting computing means (3-5) monitoring the variation of said electrical signal in order to predict said temperature and display means (6, 7; 81, 82; 121; 142a, 142b; 148) for displaying said predicted temperature, characterized by means (3-5) for providing a range of error associated with the predicted temperature, said display means being arranged also to display the range of error.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
47 words
An electronic thermometer according to claim 1, wherein the display means (6, 7; 81, 82; 121; 142a, 142b; 148) is adapted to display the predicted temperature, the predicted temperature with an upper limit error added thereto, and the predicted temperature with a lower limit error added thereto.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
28 words
An electronic thermometer according to claim 1, wherein the display means is further adapted to display the temperature being sensed by the temperature sensor (1, 141 b, 147a).
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
26 words
An electronic thermometer according to claim 1, 2, or 3 wherein the display means is comprised of a digital display (6, 7; 81, 82; 142a, 142b).
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
47 words
An electronic thermometer according to claim 1, wherein the display means is comprised of an analog display means (121, 148) and this analog display means displays a predicted temperature range which is flavored with both the sensed temperature of the temperature sensor and the range of error.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
28 words
An electronic thermometer according to claim 5, wherein the sensed temperature and the predicted temperature range are displayed on the single analog display means in different display modes.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
19 words
An electronic thermometer according to claim 1, wherein the range of error is determined according to the predicted temperature.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
25 words
An electronic thermometer according to claim 1, wherein the range of error is determined according to the variation of the difference between adjacent predicted temperatures.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
25 words
An electronic thermometer according to claim 1, wherein the range of error is determined according to the period of time after the start of measuring.
